why does my forehead look bigger than
usual today that just me
probably hello everyone it's Jen and
today I'm gonna be showing you guys how
to get rid of acne super quickly as you
guys know I used to have terrible acne
if you watched my how I permanently got
rid of my acne video and even though I
have cleared up my skin for the most
part I do get the occasional zit every
now and then I'm actually breaking out
right now but you can't see cuz I have
good lighting in my room and I don't
know about you guys but for me I get
like the worst zits at the worst
possible time like last year for my
senior prom I had this huge asset on my
forehead like right there and then there
was another time that I was going on a
date with this really cute guy and I had
one right above my lip how
disgusting is that like obviously this
guy isn't gonna want to kiss me if I got
is it above my lip it's just uh oh it's
so frustrating I don't know why my skin
decides to do this to me at the worst
possible times but in the course of the
past year I have discovered home
remedies natural remedies on how to not
exactly get rid of a zit completely in
like a day because that's just that's
unrealistic but in a day you can reduce
the size and get rid of the redness and
basically make it look a lot less
noticeable and who knows some of these
remedies might even get rid of your zits
completely there are some remedies in
here that have completely gone rid of my
zit overnight and I'm gonna be showing
you guys what those are and how to do
that and get clear skin again yeah let's
let's get started so the first thing you
want to do before even try out the other
remedies is you want to open up your
pores so that these ingredients can seep
into your skin and help and by doing
that you want to steam your face by
steaming your face again you're opening
up the pores letting in all the goodness
and letting out all the badness
basically that's the best way I can put
it I usually use all these remedies
after I get out of the shower just
because it's like more convenient easier
what you can do is you can take a sink
which you should have in your house or
you could take a boiling pot and boil
hot water in it or
hot water in your sink and then once
it's hot enough and you know you see
steam coming up you put your face above
that sink or that boiling pot and you
just let your face sit there for like 20
seconds maybe and doing that will open
up your pores and you can actually feel
your pores opening up when you do that
so after you finish steaming your face
here are some things that you can do now
the first thing you can do this is what
I do like immediately when I see is it
is I put ice on that baby you can think
of it as like when you hit your head on
something and starts to form a bump what
do you do you get an ice pack so you can
compress the swelling this and make it
go down it's literally the exact same
concept burns it doing this will also
not only bring down the swelling but it
will contract the blood vessels in your
zit so it'll reduce the redness getting
rid of the redness so essentially it's
just like making the zit smaller and not
red anymore which obviously makes it
less noticeable a lot less noticeable so
what you want to do is just take a
normal ice cube if you have one which
you should and then I usually just take
like a paper towel or a napkin and I put
that ice cube in it and then I wrap it
up I kind of just let it sit there for a
few seconds so that it can like actually
get cold and you can actually feel the
coldness and then once I'm done doing
that I'll just pick is it I actually
have one like right above my lip so I'm
gonna put it on that zit for I usually
do it for like ten minutes which is it
sounds like a long time but it works for
me so go go do that
the next thing you can do and this is
actually something that my grandmother
taught me because she used to be a cause
cause cosmic glow it's not cosmologists
those are the people that study stars
right cosmetologist that's it and she
told me that applying toothpaste to your
face will get rid of your zit she told
me that using toothpaste on as it will
help get rid of it overnight and I tried
it out one night I had a really big zit
somewhere on my face I put it on and the
next morning it wasn't completely gone
but it had shrunk so much and it looked
it looked like it was pretty much almost
gone but like I'm a perfectionist and
like I look at details a lot so I'm like
oh it's still there but like honestly
you couldn't even see it so basically
what you want to do this is something
that you kind of want to use while
you're sleeping and also let me mention
this it's best to use any acne product
or any natural at home remedies when
you're asleep because when you're
sleeping at night your skin is repairing
itself so that's why it's the best time
to use any of these acne products or
treatments that's why when you buy most
trop tropical topical treatments they
say like overnight where when you're
asleep over night cream blah blah blah
because you know that's obviously why
all you want to do is just take some
toothpaste you don't want too much oh
that's that's too much and you kind of
just want to put it on is it I have one
right between my eyebrows which you
can't see or maybe you can I don't
really know and you just dab it on like
so and you want to leave it on overnight
is it basically like dries out the zit
because what you're trying to do here is
make your zits dry because the cause for
acne is oil if your face is producing
too much oil you don't want that oil so
you're trying to dry out the zits to
completely get rid of them and also you
don't want to do this too much because
it can irritate the skin because
toothpaste is a strong contraption and
it can definitely irritate your skin if
you're like me and you have sensitive
skin so don't use this like every day
only when needed but um yeah that's that
the next thing you can do which is
probably one of the best things you can
do is use benzoyl peroxide and this
is the main key ingredient for all
athlete's Reitmans
benzoyl peroxides like the mother of
acne treatments in a whole
basically this kind of works the same
way as toothpaste is it dries out your
zit it just basically gets rid of the
zip by reducing the amount of bacteria
and oil produced on your face that is
causing that zit to be on your face you
can literally find benzoyl peroxide in
any drugstore because it's in literally
like all the acne treatments I got this
at Target I've also seen it at like CVS
and Rite Aid and basically any drugstore
you can go to it is the Neutrogena rapid
clear stubborn acne spot gel which is
perfect for me because I have very
stubborn skin and very stubborn acne
basically this works the exact same way
as toothpaste just want to take a little
bit not too much you just want enough to
like cover a zit that's why it's called
a spa treatment you don't want to put
like a whole patch on your face so let
me find another zone it is because I
always have multiple zits on my face
let's be honest people okay so again
this basically just works the exact same
way as the toothpaste preferably leave
it on overnight this says this says to
leave out overnight this says it reduces
the size and redness in just two hours
I don't believe products that say that
they get rid of a zit in like 20 minutes
or like four hours it takes at least
like 12 hours for something like this or
any remedies like this to get rid of
this it like honestly
um but yeah it does it still does work
pretty well I've been using this for
like a year now and it definitely helps
a lot so literally not just this but any
topical treatment that has been zl--
peroxide in it it'll help the next thing
that you can use is ah I have a Oh foot
cramp
the next remedy you can do now this
isn't just for like little zits this is
something that you can do for your whole
face it's not just for zits but it's
also for clean
smooth feeling skin and that is tea yep
you don't drink it well you can't drink
it this is what I have to do I will put
this in obviously a cup of hot water
I'll drink it and then when I'm done
drinking it and this is nice and moist
and soiled up I take out the teabag from
the cup and I like kind of wrap it
around a little bit and I would
literally just like rub it all over my
face now drinking tea also helps your
skin but by rubbing it on your like
spreading all the antioxidants on your
skin and getting rid of all the bacteria
that is causing that acne so that's why
I usually just like to take a warm damp
tea bag and rub it all over my face that
sounds so wrong but once I'm done doing
that it not only like helps my zits but
it makes my skin in general feel like
super smooth and super cleansed and
super refreshed and rejuvenated and it's
just overall good for your skin I'm just
going to say that right now the next
thing you can use sort of similar to the
tea is to use honey honey is actually
probably one of the best natural
remedies you can do for your skin
honey pretty much works as like a
disinfectant and it gets rid of all the
microbes I guess in your oil glands and
it also helps to speed up the healing
process of anything so like your this
which means that it gets smaller because
it's healing so honey is really really
good for that basically what you do same
exact thing is pretty much any other
topical treatment I've used in this
video is you want to just take a little
bit out squeeze it out for some reason
it's just not coming out because this is
really really old honey
but I just want to take a little bit or
as much as you can just put on your
finger and then put it literally just on
any zit on your face and you kind of
want to leave it on for as long as you
want pretty much the next thing you can
use kind of as an alternative to benzoyl
peroxide is to use tea tree oil and I
know what you're thinking why would I
want to use oil the last thing you want
to use on your face is oil because
that's what produces acne well my
friends you have stand corrected
basically tea tree oil has like
antibacterial ingredients in it that
help reduce redness and swelling so I
mean altogether it's honestly it
basically the same and works as well as
benzoyl peroxide I got this from lush it
is the greased lightning tea tree
cleanser and it strikes the spot with
lightning precision super effective tea
tree and witch hazel gel to clean acne
prone skin and remove oil how weird is
that that oil removes oil so what I like
to do again just take a little bit on
your finger and you see that maybe
probably not and just rub it on again
any six you have so I'll put some right
here you can see some I have down here
just rub it around circle motions let it
dry and then BAM your problems are gone
now another source of oil you can use
which I do not have with me right now
unfortunately is olive oil basically
olive oil contains iron vitamins and
antioxidants now olive oil doesn't
necessarily get rid of it but it does
prevent new ones from forming because
olive oil has a lot of properties in it
that's sort of like soothe your skin and
kind of balance it out to prevent new
breakouts from forming I don't know the
science behind it that's just what I've
researched and yeah so put olive oil
basically on any troubled spots I mean
pretty much the same as the tea tree oil
and you're probably good and the last
thing you can do probably the easiest
one while you're doing all these natural
remedies is to drink a ton of water
water is the best thing you can do for
your skin people water is good obviously
water is good for a lot of things but it
is especially good for your skin to keep
a nice complexion to prevent zits to get
rid of zits to keep it smooth hydrated
and so on and so forth again you want to
drink like eight liters a day how many
liters this is this is 2.1 liters so if
I drink like four of these in a day I'd
be good and I know it seems like a lot
but honestly it is a one for you and
your skin so that's that so that is it
for this video I hope you guys enjoyed
that and I hope you guys will try out
some of these remedies and hopefully it
will help you just as much
